This media file displays a stone relief sculpture of a Thracian horseman, also known as Heros. The sculpture depicts a male figure riding a horse, with the horse's head turned back. The figure is shown from the waist up, with one leg bent and the other extended. The horse is partially broken, with its head and forelegs missing. The sculpture is made of marble and is displayed in a museum setting, with a plain wall as the background. Two metal plaques are visible next to the sculpture. The plaque on the left is in Bulgarian and English, identifying the sculpture as "THE THRACIAN HORSEMAN (HEROS)" and stating it is made of marble from Southern Bulgaria, dating to the 2nd-3rd century AD, from Varna (Odessos). The plaque on the right is also in Bulgarian and English, and it describes the rarity of the monument, noting that the deity is represented in over 4000 bas-reliefs, but only one sculpture was known before this one. It also states the sculpture is a donation by Georgi Bonin on May 16, 2012. The sculpture appears to be illuminated by artificial lighting.
